Reply to comment by fpcoffee in Chinese Nuclear Lab Uses Intel, Nvidia Chips Despite Ban | Blacklisted Chinese entities obtain American hardware on the open market. by chrisdh79

You cant stop it, but you can make it more expensive.

Instead of buying the chips directly China has to set up, or go through intermediaries.

This adds overhead costs and risks. If they get the chips through a Vietnamese intermediary, the US can pressure Vietnam to shut it down or risk being sanctioned as well.
